Wednesday, September 17th, 6:00 - 8:00 PM Luke Dempsey presents Club Soccer 101: The Essential Guide to the Stars, Stats, and Stories of 101 of the Greatest Teams in the World Drinks, book signing, and foosball Luke Dempsey is an author and journalist who has written about soccer for a wide range of publications, including Capital New York, the New York Observer, and Howler. A native of England, he lives in New Jersey. Join Luke at Fort Greene’s DSK bar to celebrate the publication of Club Soccer 101! The book covers the history of European powerhouses like Arsenal, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Chelsea, Inter Milan, Manchester United, and Real Madrid; historic South American clubs like Boca Juniors, Corinthians, Penarol, and Santos; and rising clubs from Africa, Asia, and America, including such leading MLS teams as LA Galaxy, New York Red Bulls, and Seattle Sounders. With the passion and panache of a deeply knowledgeable and opinionated fan, Dempsey explains what makes each club distinctive: their origins, fans, and style of play; their greatest (and most heartbreaking) seasons and historic victories and defeats; and their most famous players—from Pelé, Eusébio, and Maradona to Lionel Messi, Wayne Rooney, and Ronaldo. As Franklin Foer, bestselling author of How Soccer Explains the World , has written, “Luke Dempsey is one of the funniest, most charming narrative companions I know, and this book is one of the world's great reference books.” DSK is located at 710 Fulton Street (corner of South Oxford).
